RESPONSIBILITIES

The Center for Human Genome Variation is currently recruiting for a Bioinformatician I to collaborate with researchers and scientists, providing bioinformatics training, consulting, applications support and development.

The Bioinformatician I will work with a team of CHGV Bioinformaticians that focuses on new software development as well as development and maintenance of specific areas of the next generation sequencing analysis pipeline. This position will be responsible for developing and implementing innovative computational approaches for the analysis of large sequence datasets from NGS technologies and will collaborate and consult with CHGV researchers to analyze problems and recommend solutions to meet the computational needs for a wide range of biological research. The Bioinformatician I will train and assist CHGV staff and affiliates with data access, analysis, and interpretations and is expected to contribute to publications related to the Bioinformatician work performed.

REQUIREMENTS

Work requires a B.S. in the Biological Sciences with demonstrable computational skills; or a B.S. in Computer Science with a strong interest in Biology/Genomics.

PREFERENCES

A M.S. in the biological sciences with demonstrable computational skills or a M.S. in computer science with a strong interest in biology/genomics is strongly preferred.
